I'm not a boxing afficionado per se, either. I sometimes run into people who've never seen the first Rocky, and I tell them that Rocky is not a boxing film. If you're not standing on your feet and screaming, "Rocky" by the final scene, then I don't know about you.

Stallone is now a born-again Christian, so I can admire him from that perspective as well.

The list of movies I haven't seen is much longer than those that I have.

I have never seen any of those, period.

A movie I tried to watch but turned off: Dances with Wolves. This is partly because it was airing on a broadcast channel with ten minutes of commercials between five minutes of movie, but all I saw was Kevin Costner and a bunch of Indians standing around.

“It is amazing how many people think that they can answer an argument by attributing bad motives to those who disagree with them. Using this kind of reasoning, you can believe or not believe anything about anything, without having to bother to deal with facts or logic.” ― Thomas Sowell

With the exception of one of the Harry Potters, I haven't seen any of those.
